2 week pre-op
Tomorrow starts my 2 week pre-op eating plan. Thankfully, my surgeon doesn't do 2 weeks of liquids. 2 shakes a day and 2 small meals with 2 snacks. Things are moving so fast!
Nervous, scared, ready.

Your so lucky, I had to do 1 week of clear fluids, and three weeks of full fluids. I started last Thursday on my soft food protein diet. I was so excited to chew/eat food again. I get being a bit nervous, worrying if something might not agree with you.
Luckily, things have been okay in the last four days. Everything I've eaten has seemingly agreed with me. The first couple days, my stomach kinda felt weird, but perhaps more like wow something other than liquid is coming down here. Just take it slow, recommended at my center is to try foods one at a time, so if someting doesn't agree with you, you'll know which food it is.
Enjoy having food again. Just take it slow.
